Who
is
there
in
England
who
did
know
of
the
existence
of
this
letter
?
”
“
Each
member
of
the
Cabinet
was
informed
of
it
yesterday
,
but
the
pledge
of
secrecy
which
attends
every
Cabinet
meeting
was
increased
by
the
solemn
warning
which
was
given
by
the
Prime
Minister
.
Good
heavens
,
to
think
that
within
a
few
hours
I
should
myself
have
lost
it
!
”
His
handsome
face
was
distorted
with
a
spasm
of
despair
,
and
his
hands
tore
at
his
hair
.
For
a
moment
we
caught
a
glimpse
of
the
natural
man
,
impulsive
,
ardent
,
keenly
sensitive
.
The
next
the
aristocratic
mask
was
replaced
,
and
the
gentle
voice
had
returned
.
“
Besides
the
members
of
the
Cabinet
there
are
two
,
or
possibly
three
,
departmental
officials
who
know
of
the
letter
.
No
one
else
in
England
,
Mr
.
Holmes
,
I
assure
you
.
”
“
But
abroad
?
”
“
I
believe
that
no
one
abroad
has
seen
it
save
the
man
who
wrote
it
.
I
am
well
convinced
that
his
Ministers
—
that
the
usual
official
channels
have
not
been
employed
.
”
Holmes
considered
for
some
little
time
.
“
Now
,
sir
,
I
must
ask
you
more
particularly
what
this
document
is
,
and
why
its
disappearance
should
have
such
momentous
consequences
?
”
The
two
statesmen
exchanged
a
quick
glance
and
the
Premier
’
s
shaggy
eyebrows
gathered
in
a
frown
.
“
Mr
.
Holmes
,
the
envelope
is
a
long
,
thin
one
of
pale
blue
colour
.
There
is
a
seal
of
red
wax
stamped
with
a
crouching
lion
.
It
is
addressed
in
large
,
bold
handwriting
to
—
—
”
“
I
fear
,
sir
,
”
said
Holmes
,
“
that
,
interesting
and
indeed
essential
as
these
details
are
,
my
inquiries
must
go
more
to
the
root
of
things
.
What
was
the
letter
?
”
